In-Depth Information
In addition to naming your session, such as Deadlock_Detection , it has the following three options
(highlighted with boxes in the i gure):
Templates are pre-coni gured sessions — that is, almost ready-to-use sessions that you can
deploy for common and generic situations. After selecting a template, you can coni gure
some of the options specii c to your environment, such as the event i le target paths.
The schedule options are self-explanatory. You can dei ne them when you create the session
or come back and coni gure them later.
Causality Tracking is an option you might select in more complicated sessions for which you
want to be able to correlate multiple events that were executed by multiple running tasks.
This would rarely be required for the types of sessions you'll be creating here, so it can be
ignored for now.
The Events pane, shown in Figure 13-7, is where you coni gure the events for which you want your
session to collect data, for example, lock_deadlock . It is best explored using the scrollbar shown
in the boxed area, although you can perform text searches as well. When you have found the events
you want, you can add and remove them with the arrow buttons.
